Did you make the operation required (flash with SP Flashtool and scatter and my boot.img)?

After flashing boot.img with Flashtool, when you ran MTKDroid sand connect the phone the indicator on bootom left is green?

If it's green the device is rooted and boot.img is flashed OK.

Then It's teh best that I can do for you remotely.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NuttyBunny:
I did the flash with my scatter and your boot. But the bottom indicator is still blue. If I press ROOT on MTKDroid it says that the root operation must be done with CWM :(

I guess I'll remain with no root for a while :eek:

Thanks for your help anyway.

Hi everyone !

I have the stock rom then I already have the boot.img and recovery.img and the scatter.

I made the patched boot and the recovery with MTKDroid tool (boot&recovery)

Thank you very much !
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bovirus:
You are OT here.

This thread is about ONLY to MTKDroid and their use.

Is not about decompress/recomrpess boot.img or create recovery with other tools for specific device.

I want to create CWM recovery with MTKDroid tool ...

But I don't know if this way works for every MT6592 phones !
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bovirus:
You need a root device.

Then please read the first post...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nestea57:
What ?

I don't need to be rooted to make a patched recovery file ...

Neither flashing with SP flashtool the boot.img and recovery.img.

Thank you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bovirus:
Probably you have to re-read carefully the first posts.

This is the thread of MTKDroid. And only about MTKDroid.

To create the base CWM (5.5.0.4) with MTKDroid the phone should be root.

You cannot ask here:

- about recovery created outside from MTKdroid

- any other things not about MTKDroid.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] popthosegaskets:
No need to be rooted if making the patched recovery file.

Need to be rooted if doing any flash operation with ADB or Flashtool.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nestea57:
Ok, I removed every other questions.

Then, I dont need rooted device since I already got stock boot.img and recovery.img and scatter. (no need to read back the rom, moreover dont need to be root to make it)

And how do have a rooted device without the recovery.. Anyway.

I read: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38337401&postcount=5

I'm at the 7st step.

Anyway, I flashed the boot.img and recovery.img patched by MTKdroid but it doesn't work...

Is it useful if I upload both files ?

Thank you.

Need to be rooted to flash with SP Flashtool ? really ? I don't think so, I've never needed to be root to flash anything. (And How to be rooted if we cant flash anything... it's not logical)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bovirus:
To have a working patched boot.img/recovery.img it's better to have device unlocked. (full read/write)

Question regarding SP Flashtool (no need root - flashtool erase anytrhings) is not related to MTKDroid and cannot post here...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nestea57:
Unlocked means what ? I think my device is unlocked...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57918281&postcount=1430 => you spoke about SP flashtool.. It's why I posted here.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] popthosegaskets:
Try flashing with MTK Droid Tools, which requires root shell permission, therefore requiring a rooted device. As long as custom recovery is concerned root will make things easier for you.

One or two off topic replies should be fine, just don't spam a page full of off topics as mod will clean thread.

Thanks my friend for the quick answer, is there a way to backup my data I have a 10.1 MTK 8389.

I tried to install TWRP reading this

Easy Magic TWRP Installer for all MediaTek Devices ONLY

I had posted in that tread but I got no answer if I manage to install twrp I don't need the user data function I will make the backup using TWRP.

Using last version I had made a fully working rom backup in case of a brick, I had also tried SP Flash Tool all are working fine

Below is my post.. I must have a secured bootloader, if you can help...

My scatter file for this Tab is https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36622855/MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt

Can you see if there is a locked, secure bootloader? I am a noob...

Hi I have a Chinese 10.1 tablet with MT8389 Soc, I had managed to rooted with root genius and I have a Kinguser app instead of super user app.

Rooting works fine. I tried this tools the proccess was going ok ( it stopped in "Unable detect res") I put 800X1280 a directory was created in my Pc "BackUp-MTK-Recovery" there is a file recovery.img 16384KB inside (I assume this is my recovery) and after it stopped in "recovery.fstab :" It is the last line of the log. ( I had also in the message "An error has been detected, cannot repack recovery")

During the proccess I had the message "Secured boot image" Perhaps this is the problem? I have a locked bootloader? is there a solution to this?

The log is in my dropbox https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/36622855/log.txt

Please follow the guide.

If Is told that you have patch boot.img it means that you have to do it.

Can I flash TWRP recovery in all my other devices I have no problem using TWRP
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bovirus:
It's very big misunderstanding7error.

To enable full installation of recovery you have to answer "yes" to patch boot.img.

I cannot answer because someone said "NO" and didn't explian why that.

TWRP is not related to this thread.

I made my recoveries on my devices y in this way and I didn't have this kind of problem.

Just one time I had a problem but was due a problem in SD mapping that depend by firmware.

The log that ypou posted seems the log of TWRP installer (not MTKDroid).

Please take care that this the thread for MTKDroid and not for TWRP installer.

Secured boot image means that you have secure.ro=1 in default.ptop in boot.img.

Try to use my tool (boot.img unlocker)

https://mega.co.nz/#!idJUgQpa!TuTZO2_WofPW_2QELuha9GQjU2uOk6SjOnoPOQuitjs

decompress it and put in the fodler the original boot.img.

Run the batch.

The old boot.img will be renamed as boot-Stock.img

the new unlocked boot.img as original name (boot.img).

Flash it using your scatter file and just reflash boot.img in Falshtool - DOWNLOAD Mode.

Now secure.,ro should be=0.

Sorry but cannot continue here with request not related MTKDroid.

Does not even attempt to answer my question, which is why is MTKDroid crashing?, my guess you have no ideal.

I actually got MTKDroid to stop crashing, MTKDroid was crashing cause it can't handle UBIFS, simply as that, Once I setup up dual boot and ran tablet from sdcard formatted as EXT4, MTKDroid works without crashing, MTKDroid can't make scatter file but did make a backup.

I have a ITOUCH DIGI MT6582 phone from China which, unfortunately, is impossible to find more information from the internet other than the fact this is a Star S9500 slapped with another name. My question is, are there anyways I can restore the phone again because call me an idiot, when I was doing step 8 in "[GUIDE] How to ReadBack ROM using SP FlashTool, to make the CWM recovery, to install SuperUser (get root) etc..

If your phone not rooted using the ROOT button.", I accidentally flashed the whole ROM_0 into the checked RECOVERY instead of just flashing the .img from the backup folder........ I know I bricked it, but I can still connect preloaded adb to the computer so I figured if there's anyway I can loaded back everything into the phone through FlashTool.
